A/N: New story people! It might be a bit cliché, but I wanted to try writing this story, so here goes!

"Talking"

Thoughts/Flashbacks

"Italian"

Summary: AU. Tsuna is a loner and bullied a lot. No one ever thought of hanging out with him, or getting to know the "real" him. However, after one event changes his life, he gets an unexpected chain reaction.


Tsuna sighed. He sighed again as he stares at the class clock, urging it to go faster. He looked around the classroom. He saw Yamamoto sleeping behind his book, a grin plastered on his face. Tsuna lightly smiled. He continued to look around.

He saw Gokudera, a transfer student from Italy. He shivered when he remembered his glare, it was bone-chilling. He quickly observed Gokudera, so he wouldn't be caught and glared at. Gokudera was casually propping up on leg above the table, taking notes on his lap, his hair tied, causing several shrieks from fangirls. He giggled lightly as Gokudera's annoyed expression.

He then proceeded to look out the window. He unfortunately saw Hibari biting some delinquents to death. He paled as he saw Hibari completely clean, but his tonfas dripping quite an amount of blood. He smiled when he saw Sasagawa run around the school, most likely screaming extreme. He sweat dropped as he saw Sasagawa approach Hibari, shouting something, only to be knocked down by a tonfa.

"Hieee!" Tsuna shrieked, as a chalk hit his head. He turned to his teacher, Reborn-sensei, who was smirking smugly at him. "Sawada!" Reborn-sensei shouted. "H-Hai!" Tsuna meekly responded. Reborn pointed to the board, a complex problem written. Tsuna stared at it for awhile before answering, "I-I don't know sensei." a snort from Gokudera and snickers from the class was heard.

Oh shut up. It's not like you could solve it yourselves. Save for Gokudera, though, he's as smart as a college student. I admire him a lot. Tsuna thought, as he sat back down. Reborn smirked smugly as he witnessed the facial expression of Tsuna. "Oh, how right you are, Sawada." Reborn said, gaining a 'hieee' from Tsuna. "Of course, nobody else, save for Gokudera, whom you admire so much, is incapable of solving this question." the class quieted down as a small blush of embarrassment scattered across Tsuna's face.

After school

Tsuna sighed as he packed his bag. Oh man. Today was so tiring, I can't believe Reborn did that to me! Ugh! He's so mean! Why is he a teacher?! Truth was, Reborn was Tsuna's uncle, and the only one who knew and bothered to actually know the "real" Tsuna.

Tsuna sighed once more as he finished packing up and started to head out the school. Not long after, a group of people surrounded him. "Oh look, it's Dame-Tsuna, our prey." the supposed leader's minions cackled around him. "So, got anything to say?" the leader asked, cracking his knuckles. Tsuna just stood there, knowing very well the results of both choices. "Oh, not answering, eh? Well, we better teach you a lesson." he said, and on cue, everybody proceeded to beat Tsuna up.

Tsuna limped as he stopped on a red walking sign. He flinched as he tried to adjust his bag on his shoulder. As he waited for the green light, he saw a boy his age walk across the street and a bus coming straight at him. "Watch out!" Tsuna shouted, as he ran as fast as he could, despite the pain, to push the boy out of the way of the speeding bus.

The last thing Tsuna remembered as he got hit, was shocked and grateful green eyes staring at him. Then he blacked out.

A/N: Hey! So here's my new story! I really wanted to try a story with this plotline, and I kinda had this idea stored somewhere, so I wanted to write it. Sorry of it's so short on the first chapter, but I hoped you enjoyed it!

Ciao!
